ångdrivning
Ångdrivning, also known as steam propulsion, is a method of powering vehicles and machinery using steam generated from boiling water. This technology has a rich history dating back to the 17th century, with notable contributions from figures like Thomas Newcomen and James Watt. The basic principle involves heating water to produce steam, which then expands and exerts pressure, driving a piston or turbine to create mechanical work.
One of the earliest applications of ångdrivning was in steam engines, which were used for pumping water
The efficiency of steam engines improved significantly with the introduction of the condenser by James Watt,
Ångdrivning has also found applications in various industries, including power generation and heating systems. Steam turbines
